Listers:  I have just purchased a set of V.O. perforated leather handleba r tape.  This is some of the best that I have seen and obviously I will h ave (almost) one real good chance of doing it right as there will be some c ut off and 'discarded' as there is plenty of length.  Is there a way, oth er than laying a layer of double-sided sticky tape on the bars?  There wa s one method of some kind of drywall adhesive too.   I do wrap from the bar tips up, of course.  Did someone her have a hemp wrap solution for a finishing touch?
